      You are most welcome. We made good use of our few days off, there's some more of the Isle of Bute on the way!

    That was really interesting. I love how you find out the back stories to the people buried there. Great video!

      Thanks Valerie. I think it's important that folk aren't forgotten. Especially with the Celts being such high achievers!!!

    It's a lovely graveyard, my wife's grandparents are buried here, they were farmers on Craiberoch Farm they died in the 50's. We often visit to lay flowers.

      Thanks Rita. I love a good graveyard, so much social history. The good, and not so good, should be remembered.

    Thank you so much for your research, and fo rtelling us about it. I thought I knew Bute quite well! But thanks to you I have learned a lot.

      I was pleasantly surprised when I was researching, to find so many fabulous individuals interred there. At least now I know their stories are out there! Thanks for watching.

    My great-great grandmother was buried in that churchyard in1909.
    I did visit but couldn't find it because I didn't know where to start!

      Start by contacting parish records in Rothesay. They should be able to give you plot number. Hope it helps.

    The whole segment about the graveyard was fascinating. It makes me shudder to think what the catholic orphanage was probably like. I was going to ask if there were newer graves in the cemetery and then saw the woman buried in 1992. Thanks as always for your wonderful videos.

    • @ExploringScotlandsHistory

      I imagine the orphaned was pretty grim in reality. And yes, it appears to still be imterring folk.

    Wonderful video! You do such a great job of finding and sharing the history of each area you visit. I enjoy all that you share. The graveyard is very pretty and what beautiful views beyond! If only the residents of that graveyard could share their stories with you. How interesting that would be! I guess that’s why we’re grateful for history books left behind so we can learn a little about some of them.

    A very interesting graveyard. I thought it a bit sad that there was only one monument for the orphange children.

      We nearly missed it as we were kind of expecting something larger and more elaborate. At least there is one, sometimes the wee ones' memories are erased forever 😥

    I think about the people resting in these cemeteries. Like you , I thought of the young gal you mentioned. Sounded like her name was Jenty ? Yes , I hope too that she chose however I think more probably not . I’m getting jaded in my old age .

    • @ExploringScotlandsHistory

      Jenny hopefully chose her destiny. It's great that research throws up lesser known folk in burial grounds, aswell as the historic 'stars' of the show!
